They mention a life insurance in the original article, but a Norwegian life insurance does not cover medical costs of course 😆

 

Something lost in translation again? I guess Mr. Wiggo has a travel insurance....

Two weeks in an ICU unit would indicate either a serious injury or the hospital padding the bill.

"the police invited legal representatives from the transport company and the victim’s relatives for negotiations to reach a resolution. The outcome was positive, with the transport company accepting the victim’s family’s conditions ...

The relatives are satisfied and feel somewhat better that the transport company will take responsibility".
